Hi
I want to use my USB HD Drive, which I have formatted using my Vu+ Solo, to record videos.
I keep getting the message that the Disk is Not Mapped
Not sure how to solve this...

Sorry for the stupid question but I'm new at this

Thanks in advance

Is it mounted? Does it give you a message when you plug it into the decoder?

Yeah there is message that just said there are no files on this device.
When I look for the device in the Devices Manager, under "Mount" it says "Not Mapped"

I don't have a mount manager...
I have :
Devices Manager
USB Format Wizard...

Yeah keep it basic for now :)
This is my first time dealing with a receiver with so many features

If I want to pause or record live tv, do I need to download a plugin ?
